No End Yet For `Hill Street`

October 31, 1985|By Carolyn McGuire.

The rumors may continue, but NBC Entertainment President Brandon Tartikoff insists that ``Hill Street Blues`` presently is not in danger of being canceled after this season even though ratings have slipped. However, at least one regular--Charles Haid as Officer Andy Renko--has announced that he won`t be back after next season, the show`s seventh.

In Thursday`s episode (9 p.m. on NBC-Ch. 5), Capt. Frank Furillo (Daniel J. Travanti) wins points with the media when he announces his police-corruption commission findings. Meanwhile, a Rambo-like character takes people hostage.
